IKON going green with new Mercedes S-Class 500 Hybrid

Leading luxury limousine and chauffeur company, Ikon Services, has announced the addition of the Mercedes S-Class 500 plug-in Hybrid to their fleet of cars; a new eco-friendly Mercedes which will be available exclusively on the French Riviera with Ikon Services from April 2015.

Nikolas Beer, chief executive officer of IKON stated, “With the last Mercedes S-Class 500 Hybrid, it will be possible to drive our clients from Antibes or Cannes to Nice Airport on battery power alone. We will be able to propose our clients a zero-emission transfer. It's a real revolution in the luxury transportation sector.

“The new Mercedes-Benz S 500 Plug-In Hybrid blends an ultramodern hybrid drive configuration with the unique innovations and the luxurious equipment and appointments of the S-Class. The luxury saloon with a long wheelbase impresses with exceptional dynamism and efficiency.”

The Mercedes-Benz S500 Plug-in Hybrid is the first of up to ten petrol- and/or diesel-electric powered models confirmed for launch by the German car maker before the end of 2017.
